Increasingly efficient building insulation can help to mitigate the effects of climate change, but heavily insulated
buildings are not always good for human health. Poor ventilation can result in lower oxygen levels and a build-
up of carbon dioxide (CO
Already at 1000 ppm, people begin to experience drowsiness and have difficulty concentrating. Consequently,
there is a growing demand for smart indoor air quality sensors that can "smell" rising levels of CO

including how to set up and get started with Infineon's CO
user manual for more details on the CSK. Additional documents are available and are listed at the end of this
document.
The board also compraises the XENSIV™ DPS368 digital barometric pressure sensor. This high-precision pressure
sensor can detect very small changes in barometric pressure, which makes it an ideal device for use cases where
accurate pressure event detection is required (e.g., opening of doors or windows, or fall detection).
Having both the CO
sensor and pressure sensor on the board gives the possibility to develop and test more

complex scenarios where data from both sensors is combined for more reliable event detection.
